[urq] Battery charger question

[Ingo Rautenberg]

L-A,

Is the car outside? I would opt for a trickle charger. I didn't check your
link, but many have a plug wherein you can have the leads attached to your
battery at one end and the plug that connects to the trickle charger at the
other end. That way you needn't worry that the charger is draining the
battery if it's not plugged in.
